Description
Eucalyptus Plywood is an engineered wood produced out of eucalyptus trees.
It is durable, strong, and environmentally friendly.
Some of its key factors include:
### **1. Properties**
– **High Strength & Density**: Eucalyptus wood is denser and hence strong and durable in comparison to most types of plywood.
– **Smooth Finish**: Has a fine, even grain, and ideal for lamination and finishing.
– **Water Resistance**: With proper processing, can become resistant to moisture, and can be used in marine and exterior applications.
– **Environmental Friendliness**: Eucalyptus trees have a high growth rate, and hence, such plywood is an environmentally friendly alternative to hardwood-based plywood.
### **2. Uses**
– **Furniture**: Usually used for use in chairs, tables, and cabinets.
– **Construction**: For roofing, flooring, and wall panels.
– **Exterior & Marine Uses**: With proper processing, marine and exterior use cases for boat construction and exterior use cases can use eucalyptus plywood.
– **Industrial & Packaging Uses**: Ideal for use in pallets, crates, and for use in industries for storing items in bulk.
### **3. Varieties of Eucalyptus Plywood**
– **Commercial Grade**: For use indoors in furniture and for use in panels.
– **Marine Grade**: Waterproof and for use in wet and moist environments.
– **Film-Faced**: For use in concrete formwork, with its durability and even face.
